The Sixers say Robert Covington underwent surgery to repair a tendon in his left finger and will be re-evaluated in 2-3 weeks. There's no reason to believe he'd miss any time next season. The team says Covington suffered the injury on Dec. 28, so he played through some discomfort through much of the season.

No vault from the 2018 Lakers' pick at the draft lottery, so the Celtics will turn their attention to the 2019 Kings pick. Boston gets Sacramento's selection as long as it's not No. 1 overall (otherwise, they get the 76ers pick).

The NBA says the officials in Wednesday night's closeout game between the Celtics and 76ers missed two key late fouls that would have gone against Philadelphia, which went on to win by two points and close out the series 4-1.
